    I love animals and they feel pain and emotion just like we do. I would like to help stop animal abuse, animal testing and puppy mills. I keep reading so many stories were the abuser just gets a slap on the wrist. Maybe if there were stricter punishments animal abuse will slowly come to an end. I would like to know how I can help to get each state to enforce jail time for all animal abusers.

    There is not enough punishment for animal abuse. They have feelings just like us. Please change the law! Probation or community service is simply not enough.

    Only positive benefits can come from stricter animal abuse laws. It would also set a good example to our younger generations that compassion and justice are attainable with some teamwork and dedication.

    For quite a few people, their animals are their children. If you will not put up with child abuse, you should not put up with animal abuse! Just like children they cannot protect themselves. People that abuse children will also abuse others, elderly, chikdren, special needs..... they are sick people and need to be treated as such.

    This isn't enough! Adults who have been convicted of animal cruelty should be jailed AND fined. It's not enough just to prohibit them from ever owning another animal, they could do it to strays. Who in congress can help make this a felony. Please help. The two men on Facebook shown to have cut off a dog's ears appear proud. The white woman who shot a white buffalo with an arrow should be convicted and fined. These people post on the internet as if this was a boast of their what, success?, prowess? They are so insensitive, it just make me naucious.

    I see so much cruelty..Animals know how to love..they fee pain and bleed like we do their blood runs red as we do... What on Earth could make someone feel that whether it be animal, small or large are unable to defend themselves. Must really make someone feel like a real man or a woman to be so hateful to kill.. I was always told ignorance breeds ignorance.... I am not your judge you will face that one day from a higher power

    Animal welfare is an extremely urgent matter. It is essential to protect the most vulnerable creatures on earth. People who abuse animals are sadists & their cruelty escalates. Please increase animal protection laws & consider that all living beings deserve respect & kindness & that animals have no voice at all. Thank you.

    All those out there with power and positions who see what's going on against animals and who do nothing are the lowest form of human identity. All those who are religious and see animals as nothing important remember in your bibles that when the great flood came to cleanse the earth God saved the animals, not the humans ( except for Noah and his family), because they were the only ones worth saving.

    Animal abuse is happening more and more. The way animals are treated is inhumane. Animals are living, breathing things that also have feelings. They feel pain. It's been noted that kids torturing animals more than likely will start hurting humans.

    Animal abuse is definitely a horrible and disgusting thing that needs to end. The amount of animal abuse that is happening today is absolutely horrific. I hope to see stricter laws for abuse in the future.
